I had (have) no blogging goals. I don't allow comments. I don't do advertising on my site. I avoid the multiple blog widgets offered. I don't sell merchandise. Hey, I don't even have a blog roll. Yet I'm approaching 200,000 hits, and now, I'm finally on a regular 1,000+ views per day basis. My secret? I absolutely have no clue, other than the content I'm interested in and push. I do know that I do a lot of work on presenting existing web content in a different manner - here's a monthly sample of that, which has has been popular with my readers: http://www.c3headlines.com/2009/12/as-of-november-30-2009-decade-cooling-trend-is-now-87f-per-century.html I definitely don't focus on web metrics, or the usual measured blog success criteria, which is more than evident: look at www.c3headlines.com . Yet, I get a lot of visitors and I think it's because of the passion, and the content that I publish in a slightly different manner. Duane, forget the goals, objectives, metrics, expert advice, analytics, and etc. Instead, lead with your passion, your heart, and do things a little bit different than the "consensus."

You provide a unique service for those of us who are somewhat likeminded. Let's look at the things you have done quite well. You have given direction to many who are involved in the conservative movement. Your blog has informed on crucial issues, many times a day or two ahead of my other favorites Nealz Nuze, and Fox News. That by itself is an accomplishment. Keep up the good work! We appreciate you. Duane, don’t be so hard on yourself. You provide a unique service for those of us who are somewhat likeminded.
